Years Of
Experience
Picture a yard where water moves away from your home, new hardscaping sits level, and every next step starts on firm ground. Site grading and preparation reshapes and readies your property for lawns, patios, gardens, drainage work, and outdoor construction.
Our crew assesses existing elevations, soil movement, runoff paths, and access before moving material. Clay-heavy soil and mature-tree lots in Lorne Park call for careful slopes, protected root zones, and compaction that accounts for seasonal movement.
You get a clear plan before equipment arrives, so the scope makes sense and the finished grade supports your investment. Reach out for a free on-site estimate, a clear quote, and no obligation.

I had a great experience working with Maverick Landscaping. Matt was professional, reliable, and clearly takes pride in his work. He built a beautiful patio for me in June, and the attention to detail really shows — everything came out clean, level, and exactly how I envisioned it. Communication throughout the project was smooth, timelines were respected, and the whole process felt stress-free. You can tell Matt genuinely cares about delivering quality results. Highly recommend Maverick Landscaping if you’re looking for someone who does solid, honest work. I’ll definitely be using them again in the future.Posted on Google Chioma NwaokoloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The patio looks amazing and we’ve already been using it a lot for entertaining. It’s completely transformed our backyardPosted on Google Linda SpurrellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Matt and his crew in to do our patio in the backyard and were extremely happy with the results. Matt was very professional and so was his crew. Highly recommend Maverick Landscaping.Posted on Google Heather LeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt and his crew are an efficient and effective team. In five days they replaced and installed our fence. They were very patient and kind to my husband, who desperately wanted to help do the wood-working things. The fence looks fantastic and we have had a handful of neighbours from around the block ask to come through and see the finished product. The workmanship is guaranteed and Matt said if we had any issues to call. The back gate was sticking a bit after the rain, so we called and Matt came and adjusted the gate so it doesn't stick any more. Fantastic service!

For homeowners planning a landscape build or fixing water concerns, we inspect elevations, runoff, access, existing structures, and soil conditions. The assessment identifies what the property needs before material is moved, giving your project a practical starting point.
For sites with old sod, loose debris, unwanted soil, small landscape features, or overgrowth, our crew clears the work area before grading. A clean, accessible surface lets new slopes and base materials be installed without burying unstable material below.
For new patios, lawns, additions, and landscape renovations, we establish broad elevations with suitable fill and machine shaping. Rough grading directs water intentionally and creates the room needed for drainage layers, aggregate bases, or finished soil.
For properties with pooling water or runoff near foundations, we prepare swales, drainage routes, and slope transitions as the site allows. The goal is a grade that moves surface water away from vulnerable areas and supports the surrounding landscape.
For patios, walkways, sheds, and other outdoor structures, we excavate and prepare stable subgrades before the visible work begins. Proper aggregate placement and compaction help the finished surface stay level through seasonal soil movement.
For lawns, planting beds, and completed outdoor spaces, we place and shape final soil to create smooth transitions and planned drainage. The finished surface is ready for sod, seed, planting, or the next approved phase of your landscape.

Step into the spaces we’ve transformed. From lush greenery to elegant stonework, our gardens are designed to inspire, relax, and elevate your everyday life.
We inspect grades, runoff, soil, access, and project goals on-site, then identify the work needed to create a stable, functional starting surface.
Our team outlines elevations, drainage direction, material needs, and work boundaries, so you can review a clear scope before the project is scheduled.
We clear approved obstacles, protect relevant features, and organize access for equipment, creating a workable area without unnecessary disturbance to the rest of the property.
Our crew places, cuts, shapes, and compacts material in stages, checking slopes as the grade takes form and preparing bases where required.
We walk the completed work with you, confirm the prepared areas, and explain what to watch for as soil, sod, or future construction is added.
Our skilled professionals bring decades of hands-on experience, delivering expert solutions tailored to every property.
We’re committed to excellence in every detail - because your home deserves nothing less than stunning, lasting results.
Site grading usually includes assessment, clearing approved obstacles, shaping elevations, placing material, compaction, drainage preparation, and a final review. The exact scope depends on your existing grade and what will be built or planted afterward.
We sequence the work so the ground is ready for its intended use, rather than simply moving soil around.
We determine grading requirements by assessing existing elevations, visible water paths, soil conditions, access, foundations, and your planned landscape or structure. A site visit matters because a low spot, retaining edge, or patio location can change the right approach.
We then explain the practical slope and material options before work begins.
Cost is affected by site size, access, excavation depth, soil conditions, material volume, disposal needs, drainage work, and the finish required. Across the GTA, smaller accessible grading jobs typically fall in the low thousands, while major excavation and drainage preparation can reach well into five figures. Exact numbers come from a free on-site estimate.
Yes, you can receive a detailed upfront quote after the site is reviewed. It outlines the visible scope, materials, and planned work so you can compare options with confidence.
If conditions outside the visible scope appear, we explain the issue and available paths before proceeding.
Yes, we help you identify when local bylaws or permits may apply and walk you through what is needed for the planned work. Requirements can vary with drainage changes, structures, lot conditions, and the project scope.
We do not assume every property follows the same approval path.
Many straightforward grading projects take several days, while larger sites with excavation, drainage, or difficult access can take longer. Rain, frozen ground, material availability, hidden site conditions, and added scope can affect the schedule.
We plan the sequence around weather and communicate changes that affect the work.
If unexpected issues appear, we pause the affected work, document what we found, and explain practical options before making changes. Buried debris, unsuitable fill, water, roots, or unmarked features can alter the original approach.
You stay informed before additional work is approved.
We create drainage by shaping surface slopes, identifying low points, and preparing swales or drainage routes where the site supports them. Near Port Credit, lakefront weather exposure can make thoughtful runoff planning especially important.
Water is directed away from vulnerable areas while keeping the finished yard usable.
Yes, we can handle approved clearing and removal needed to access the grading area. That may include sod, loose debris, old landscape materials, small features, or unsuitable surface material.
We review what stays, what goes, and how removal affects access before the work is priced.
You receive project updates through your dedicated project specialist, who communicates key decisions, site findings, and upcoming stages. That single point of contact helps prevent mixed messages while equipment, materials, and sequencing are being coordinated.
You can raise questions before a concern becomes a costly assumption.
We use equipment suited to the access, material volume, and precision required, which can include excavators, skid steers, compactors, and grading tools. Any machine can affect soft ground, so we plan travel routes and work zones carefully.
Existing features and access limits are reviewed during the site visit.
Before grading begins, remove personal items from the work area, identify known underground features, and confirm access arrangements. You should also make sure planned structures, patios, or planting areas are clearly discussed before elevations are set.
We tell you what site-specific preparation is needed during planning.
Cleanup includes removing approved excess material and debris from the active work area, then leaving the prepared grade ready for its next phase. Final conditions depend on whether the scope ends at rough grade, finish grade, sod preparation, or hardscape base work.
We review the expected handoff before the project starts.
Proper grading can reduce erosion and settling risks, but no soil work can eliminate all movement over time. Compaction, suitable material, controlled slopes, drainage, vegetation, and weather all influence long-term performance.
We prepare the site with these factors in mind and explain sensible monitoring after completion.
Yes, workmanship coverage is available under our written terms, and we explain what applies to the approved scope before work begins. Natural soil movement, weather, drainage changes, and work by others can affect conditions after completion.
Clear expectations help you understand what the work is designed to support.
We minimize disruption by planning equipment access, defining work boundaries, managing material placement, and keeping the active area organized. Noise, dust, and vehicle movement cannot be removed entirely during earthwork, but careful sequencing reduces unnecessary impacts.
We also consider adjacent grades while shaping your property.
We manage environmental and safety concerns by reviewing slopes, runoff, access, visible hazards, and work boundaries before equipment begins. If we encounter a condition that needs a different approach, we stop and discuss it rather than pushing ahead.
Thoughtful site control protects people, property, and the planned result.
We can discuss relevant examples of grading challenges and approaches during your consultation, based on the type of site and project you are planning. Each property has different soil, access, drainage, and construction needs, so the comparison should be practical.
A site visit lets us relate the discussion directly to your yard.
Monitor the site after major rain and seasonal thaw, especially during the first year as soil settles. Watch for pooling, soft areas, washouts, or changes near foundations, and keep swales and drainage paths free of obstructions.
Prompt attention to small changes can protect the intended grade.
The best way to start is to reach out for a free on-site estimate and consultation. We will review your property, listen to the planned use, explain the likely scope, and provide a clear quote with no obligation.
Starting before spring build season helps leave room for careful planning and scheduling.
